Musharraf denies military involvement in Bhutto's death

Islamabad: Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf denied accusations that the military or intelligence services were involved in the killing of opposition leader Benazir Bhutto.

Speaking at a news conference on Thursday, one week after Bhutto was killed in a suicide attack, Musharraf said he was not "fully satisfied" with his government's own investigation, and had invited British investigators to assist the probe to dispel any suspicions about official involvement in her assassination.

He said, "We don't mind going to any extent, as nobody is involved from the government or agency side."

Musharraf also denied there had been a security lapse and implied that Bhutto, who was greeting supporters through the sunroof of her armored vehicle at the time of the attack, was partly responsible.

"Who is to be blamed for her coming out her vehicle?" he asked.
